Comment (by novoselt):

 Well don't hate it please, there is nothing wrong with the class, only
 with its backend which was designed for a quite specific purpose ;-) And
 of course bounded polytopes are not the best way to represent unbounded
 cones.

 As for caching - why should we cache `polyhedron()`? It is a complicated
 data structure which will take memory and can cause issues in pickling
 (this was the main reason for the change here, if I recall correctly - I
 was trying to simplify pickling code), it is not used extensively in
 internal computations, and I don't think there are many reasons for users
 to construct them. On the other hand it definitely can be handy if you
 want to do some generic operations like shifting the cone from the origin.

 Were there any conflicts during merge? (I never liked what is shown when
 you click on "merge commit.")
